Good stone from a queer Deposit.

A Chicago street paving contractor
has Just engaged 100000 worth OF
Dakota paving stone. The prairie re-
gion of Dakota is about the last place
We would think of going to for stone,
and yet the deposit whence this stone
is taken is said to be a most wonder.
full and magnificent formation. 1t is
called a quartzite granite, soft when
quarried and easily sawn out, but
hardening into mass fiinty and inde-
structible and non-absorbent. 1t is
pronounced by experts perfect paw
ing stone. But the strangest thing
about it is the formation from which
it is taken. This is found about two
feet under the prairie soil surrounding
Sioux Falls for miles and miles, and
when the thin soil, with its stunted
growth of grass, is stripped of, there
lies the rock, as smooth and level az a
floor. The tract contains something
ike thirty square miles, and the de-
posit is several hundred feet thick.
Through the center Of the tract runs
the Big Sioux River, whose channel is
merely q rift in the rock-a crack
formed by the partial splitting of the
whole mass. The channel is in shape
Just like the letter ", andtthe surface
of the deposit extends back for several
miles precisely at right angles with the
sides OF the crevice.- Chicago Herald.

SUMNER ROBBERS.

Ten or twelve years ago, when |
was on the detective force of Cincin-
natl, two or three very shrewd rascals
chung up" the town for three or four
weeks in way which. annoyed US not
little They we're chaps known as
porch climbers, and the way they did
their business was simply slick
Porch climbing was then in its in
fancy A sneak thief might be ready
to take advantage of an open door or
window on the lower story, but as for
"shinning up a column to reach
balcony, or using light ladder to
enter a chamber window, no one ha1
ever tried it.
The very first job, done by the gang
resulted IN a haul of $500 worth of
jewelry. Your common thief no
sooner has any plumber in his hand
than he hastens off to the pawnshop to
make a raise. This jewelry was not
put up, neither were the second and
third hauls. Then we knew that we
had to deal with rascals who had come
we'll heeled and were holding on to
their stuff Of shipping it to some other
city for sale. The first three "obberies
were made at the supper hour, when
all the family were in the dining room
or down stairs. The papers made
such an ado about it as to place citi-
zens on their guard, and the thieves
changed their hours. 1t was in sum-
mer, and very hot weather, and all up
stairs windows we're open for ventils-
ton. They wsnt in'o three or four
houses through second story windows
in the evening or mp to as late as mid
night and cleaned out jewel cases
without heinr seen or heard. Perhaps
the bol1est feat was the sixth job un.
dertaken. There was small one
story house standing beside an elegant
mansion. The little house was on a
corner. One of the fellows mounted
to the roof, crept along to the larger
house, and then ascended the tin con-
ductor on the big house to bathroom
window. The blinds inside were
locked, but he hung to the sill with
one hand until he could open them
with the other People on the street
saw him, and policeman called out to
know what he was doing. The fellow
was then sitting in the window dangl
ing his legs in o careless way, and he
replied;
..JMa and do that for exercise
every night"
With that he disappeared into tie
bathroom, and proceeded to ransack
the various rooms on that floor. 1t
seemed that all the family except a
daughter were away to neighbor's,
and the young lady had beau in
the parlor. The servants were out on
Q rear veranda, and the rooms were
thus at the mercy OF the thief, He
took his time in making his search,
and, while he was after money and
jewelry first he did not despise laces
opera glasses, and valuable hric.a-
brac. He made npa large bundle Of
stuff, tooka cigar which he found on
q mantel, and was putting away In the
coolest manner when he descended
the front stairs. The girl heard him
and came out into the hall and asked:

Garfeld's Statue

CINCINNATI, December 1.-The Gar
held bronze statue, by Michaels, was
unveiled this afternoon, before an i'm
mense concourse of people. The
daughter of Mayor Smith pulled the
cord that loosed the veil and unveiled

Subsequent editions of the journals
affirmed that Greyy had determined to
resign tomorrow.
De Roulde, during one of the Assem-
bly, recesses, got into an alter
cation with deputy and was
removed. Afterward he headed a
mob of 200 on the Rue RivoH and
started for the Hotel de Vile. The
police blocked the insurgents and ar
rested him.
Within a week the circulation of
Rochefort's journal has run from 100,-
900 to 300 600. To-day he doubled the
salaries of his editors.
When members of the Cabinet visited
the Elysee in the morning, Grevy
said: 1.-The events of the past
few days convince me that
in the interest of the republic 1 am
bound not to resign. 1 have received
from various parliamentary quarters
communications asking me to remain
in Office; therefore, 1 think it
my duty to retain my official functions"
Grevy, at conference with the min
listers, abiding to the intrigues of the
Ferryists, said: ut is all very arifully
contriVed, but the game is now appar-
ent, and these who play it are in hurry
to eat at the presidential table, but they

Quarrel About Rates.

NEW York, December IA Montreal
special says; The Grand Trunk Rail
way and Allen Line Steamships have
fallen out, and if the difficulty is, not
soon settled, after December 18th the
Allen will, as on former occasion,
quit running to Portland, and make
Baltimore their winter terminus. It
appears that the point in dispute is
the portion of freight rates which each
shall get, the steamship company
claiming larger portion than the rail-
way people are willing to grant. Repre-
sentatives of both companies have been
comforting for days without arriving at
q settlement.
